Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United Arab EmiratesThere were some stains on my bedsheets when I first got there but once mentioned, was quick to be given another set
Breakfast was great, and personal lockers were provided. The location was central and it was very easy to get around. They had a list of restaurants and places to visit ready for you which was helpful as well! Bathroom was big enough that it felt comfortable.

ChileThat those old people made noises than the young, early in the morning the turned the lights on completely, they talked a lot without taking in consideration the others passengers. I’ll put a sign saying respect others people rest time…
The hostel is amazing, it has an amazing terrace on rooftop where you get the BF and you can chill. The view is amazing from the terrace and the staff is super nice. Bathroom and showers are clean and doesn’t smells.

Bosnia and Herzegovina- Sound isolation was a bit problematic, but all in all, the one who is ‘light sleeper’ should be aware of this. Lucely we weren't one of these.
- The location of the hotel was just perfect, near to the all main atractions - Sultanahmet, Aya Sofia etc., but in the quite street. - Rooftop view was really worth it, I specially liked it. - Staff was great, and really friendly - Room was clean, and for the given price it gave everything that is needed indeed.

SwedenIn the bathroom it could get a bit sloppy in the afternoon/evening with unnecessary water on the sink and floor. A squeegee could have been good to have available for guests to use.
Agora is located a few 100 meters from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia, a parallel street to the tourist street where many bars and restaurants are located, but still peaceful and quiet. I stayed in a 10-bed mixed dormitory, and got the lowest bed exactly as I asked for at the time of reservation. Good breakfast on the top floor terrace, with a view of the rooftops and water, good service and friendly staff.

Location is just PERFECT, we couldn’t have asked for better. The cleaning lady was very nice too. The person at the reception was very flexible when I asked if I could do late check out and offered to keep the luggage as well. I highly recommend!
